Le New Morning, Paris,France - Aug 24th 1986

Susannah's Blues
This instrumental was recorded live with The Revolution at a soundcheck in Paris on August 25th 1986 but was premiered the night before at Le New Morning club and, incidentally, is not a blues number. Prince's father, John L. Nelson (RIP), who joined the band onstage for a while at Le New Morning played some piano on this version. -PrinceVault
